    This place came highly recommend by friends and the fried ones were definitely top tier. We would have gotten more if we weren't going to eat more dumplings. We also got the boiled chicken dumplings, and boiled is a no go, the skin is weird and rubbery. It was no one's favorite. Fried is the way to go! The tables are pretty dirty as they don't clean after people leave and it is very small only one big table.

    Came here over the weekend. It's a small spot, not a ton of space inside to sit and eat - it was busy when my friends and I arrived. Order at the counter, food came out quickly and piping hot. Dumplings had a nice sear and pork filling was flavorful and juicy. Highly recommend.

    I went strolling through Chinatown one evening looking for dumplings. The first couple of places I tried were far too packed, but Kings had an open seat to eat at. In retrospect, I'm glad all the other spots were too full, because Kings is delicious! Their dumplings are super affordable and super tasty. More so than even the dumplings though, I gotta recommend the Peking Duck stuffed scallion pancake!! To be honest it didn't taste like scallion pancake at all, the texture was more like a nice toasty focaccia - but to me that's a pro not a con. I really loved it! My only minor complaint would be that it was low on meat, but given the low price it's completely understandable. The inside is pretty small and can seat about 10 people total probably, so I wouldn't recommend going with a big group. It's a very classic small Chinatown shop vibe though with just a simple order counter. It's cash only, so come prepared! Overall, great dumpling spot! Definitely try the Peking Duck pancake thing.
